hexa 6 in 1 vaccine

My 6 mths LO had Hexa 6 in 1 and pneumococcal vaccine this morning. Had 2 episode of fever and 8pm there are some rash that looks like tiny pimple and some are small red patch on LO groin area, thighs and tummy area. Is it normal? Coincidentally, I just switched to follow up stage 2 FM for Lo today. Based on stage 1 3 scoops and stage 2 1 scoop. Could the rash is caused by stage 2 FM?

Besides the change in stage, is there a difference in the brand and type of formula? Eg. Previously soy based, now not? It could truly be an allergy rash, and this is probably not the first dose of 6-in-1/pneumococcal, so you would have to suspect the milk as a possibility. You may want to bring your LO to the doctor to look at the rash, see if any medicine is required, and to evaluate for possible allergies. Maybe hold off the milk for now to see if it gets better? If baby develops swelling around the eyes or breathlessless, go to Children’s Emergency. Hope your LO gets well soon!

No change in formula. She is drinking Nan HA 1, so follow up with Nan HA 2. 🤷🏻‍♀️ She previously got persistent diaper rash near butt hole area and spreaded, but it subsided. Already stop the stage 2 FM first and see if it gets better or not

My baby having rashes too after vaccination on last Friday. His body temperature increased a little bit but not fever this time. I think massaging the injection site with Vicks vaporub after 30mins has helps prevent the fever. First time trying this method

Woah... Mine is last wed. Then yesterday 4am fever came back until now. Not sure if it's related to the vaccination or just coincidence. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hi mummy, my LO rash on my groin, tummy and thigh subsided already. It's looks like tiny small red pimple spots and some rash are like small red patch. Your LO also the same? Mine is Wednesday morning and evening appear one. Fever only 2 episode and temp remain at about 37-37.3 but now no more fever.
